At the central school yesterday. just
prior to adjournment of the institute,
Prof. Churchill called attention to the
fact that in all probability Cheyenne. in a
very short time, will increase il popula-
ton to such an extent as to require seven
or eight different departments in our
schools. and that there is now but one
teacher of music for all of the depart
ments of the school. In view of the fact
that more teachers of music Twill be re-
quircd unless the various teachers take
hold of this branch Of the work, he ad-
vised all to devote some attention to this
matter so that if in the near future
teachers are required to pass an examina-
ton in music preparatory to their employ
ment in the schools they would be pre-
pared for the emergency.

Can't Find Them.

The police for some time have been
keeping a sharp lookout for tramps, for,
while no one is ever run in simply on
account of his appearance and is not ar.
rested except he commits some offence, or
is leading a worthless or immoral life, yet
the class alluded to, if they make their
appearance in the city at all, generally
appear IN either one role or the other;
and if a few of this class were to be
rounded up" now there would be some
work for them to do on the streets and
elsewhere in the city. The tramp frater
nifty, strange to say, do not appear to be
very numerous this spring-in fact, it is
only now and her that one makes his
appearance, and he disappears about as
soon as he comes.

A dribble is used to define a false try for a
goal. After scoring a touch down, the side
which accomplished it has the right to try to
kick a goal from a point opposite the spot
whore q touch down was made, and at right
angles to tho goal line. To do this to the best
advantage, the ball is generally kicked from
the hand of a player who lies fiat upon his
stomach, with the ball held a few inches
above the ground. The dribble has recently
been abolished.
A tackle occurs when a player, running
with the ball, is caught by an opponent. II
he Is stopped the opponent calls out, Held
and the man having the ball says Down"
The ball is then given to the captain for a
snap back. For the snap back the men face
each other on an imaginary line from the
ball, and, running at right angles to and In
tersecting the boundary lire, the captain
holds the ball to the ground with his foot
and hand while he sets it in motion. A fair
Is when the ball is caught in the air after
being thrown, kicked or batted by the oppo-
site side, but the player making the fair
catch must at once mark with his heel on
the ground the exact spot where he stood at
the time.
The different points in football are: Goal
obtained by a touch down, which scores six;
goal by q kick from the field, which gives
five; q touch down by which no goal is made,
which counts four, and q sa ETY. by opponents,
for which two points are allowed
A touch down Is scored when the ball Is
carried into the in goal, over the goal line,
and touched down. If the touch down be
made in the players own goal he must send
tile ball out by a kick out, but il in the goal
of the defense it may be brought md punted
from any point between the touch down and
co.. line, the players meanwhile being obliged
TO remain at a distance of fifteen feet from
him. A safety occurs when a player guard.
ing his goal receives the ball from his own
side by either a snap back or pass kick, and
then touches it down or carries 1t into touch
in goal. As before explained a safety counts
two but it is scored against the side max

When the captain who has won the toss
for the kick Off takes his position, the
rushers range themselves opposite one an

angles to the goal line. The kicker off

ter back, who ut once starts toward the goal
with it, the mob following at his heels. He,

But in football as played by the college
men, each side is given forty-ive minutes,
and whichever succeeds in scoring the greater
number of points during the time wins the
game. Thus the contest only lasts one hour
and n half, with the additional ten minutes
which are allowed for rest. The diagram
which is herewith given will give a very good
general idea OF how a football field should be
laid out.
Eleven men are allowed on each side in a
football match. OF these seven are rushers,
two are half back, one quarter back and one
full back. There are several kicks, which are
known respectively as the drop kick, !" the
"place kick" and the punt" A drop kick is
made by throwing the ball to the ground
aud catching it on the end Of
your shoe as it rises. By this method
the ball may be sent by a skillful player to
any part of the field he may wish. A place
kick is where thu ball is simply placed upon
the ground and then kicked. A punt Is
effected by allowing the ball to drop from the
hands and kicking 1t before it strikes the
ground.
